Atiku, who was a former Nigeria’s Vice President made the proposal in a letter to the Deputy Senate President, Jibrin Barau, who is also the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Constitution Review.

The letter dated August 29, 2024, which was made public this week was signed by the former VP, seeking that his proposal be considered in the ongoing constitutional amendment process by the National Assembly.

The former Vice President sought that paragraph ‘a’ of the review should be added to Section 130 (1) of the 1999 Constitution to read, “The office of the President shall rotate among the six geopolitical zones of the Federation on a single term of six years flowing between the North and South on the single term of six years respectively.”

He also sought that Section 135 (2) be amended to read, “Subject to the provisions of subsection 1, the President shall vacate his office at the expiration of a period of six years commencing from the date when he has been elected to such office before.”
